I got a Medela personal double electric from my insurance (equivalent to a regular Pump In Style, not advanced) and used it a couple of times but I like the PISA more. The insurance version only has three suction settings and no letdown button.</p> <p>OMG NO I do not love pumping. :) But I do what I can to provide my baby her meals! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/saying-goodbye-to-my-pump#post-1421478 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 16:51:10 +0000 Adira 1421478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awww, sorry you have to return your rental!</p> <p>I don't love or hate pumping. Sometimes I get sore and so I hate that, but I like the break in my day and how it's a set time where I can relax to pump!</p> <p>I have two pumps. My original is the Avent Double Electric Breast Pump and my second is a Medela PISA. I originally didn't like the Avent and finally went through my insurance to get a PISA, thinking it was going to be so much better. Now that I have both, I realize how awesome my Avent one really is! It's sooooooo much more comfortable with pump with (the petal cushion inserts are AMAZING). I use the PISA at work and the Avent at home, so I use both daily, but I definitely like the Avent better (though they seem equally as efficient). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/saying-goodbye-to-my-pump#post-1421417 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 16:37:04 +0000 birdofafeather 1421417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i loved my hygeia (although i hated pumping!). good luck with the switch! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/saying-goodbye-to-my-pump#post-1420929 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 14:46:24 +0000 Charm54 1420929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also love pumping!! (I think we are definitely in the minority, haha). </p> <p>My supply dropped last week after I got the flu and now I'm only outputting 1/2 of what I used to. I've EPed since the beginning and am just shy of my 6 month goal (LO is 5 months). Last night I looked at my pump and got really sad...like I know I'm going to be saying goodbye to a good friend soon, haha. DH thinks I'm crazy bc all I did in the first couple of weeks was complain about the pump!</p> <p>Hope your new pump is just as good as your old :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/saying-goodbye-to-my-pump#post-1420850 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 14:28:19 +0000 AmandaB8 1420850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been eping since LO was born 4 weeks ago. Honestly, I love it. But I've had a hospital grade pump that we rented. It's due back today, and I'll be using my Hygeia from now on :( </p> <p>It works the same and is just as efficient, but it's much louder. Such a shame! I need to work on dampening the sound. </p> <p>Anyone else have to switch? Did you love pumping? </p>
